A List of Really Great Ikea Alex Drawer Dupes

If you follow any beauty influencer at all on TikTok, YouTube or Instagram, you’ve likely seen the infamous Ikea Alex Drawers. These popular wooden units (which come in white, brown, gray or black) are perfect for organizing a variety of cosmetics and beauty supplies, letting you choose from different sizes and numbers of drawers. Alex Drawers even come with wheels that make them easy to move around your home.

With the darker colorways priced at $110, Alex Drawers can be used to organize all your nail polish, makeup and skin care products (and really, anything else you want). And the trendiness of the Alex Drawers goes beyond just what’s inside them. Do a Google search and discover hundreds of ways people have “upcycled” their units, from painting them colorful colors to adding legs and even putting two together to make a base for a vanity or desk.

How To Shop for Alex Drawer Dupes

Shopping for drawers that have all the features you love from the Alex variety isn’t rocket science, but it’s important to know a few things:

Image: Ikea
  • Decide what you’ll use it for and how many drawers you need. Some units come with five, others with nine.
  • Determine the size of the space where you plan to keep it to see if you’ll want a wider or a taller, skinnier one.
  • Choose a color you like, or plan to customize or DIY it using one of the many hacks found online.
  • Decide whether it’ll be stationary or you’ll add wheels.

But if you don’t want to spring for the real thing, there are plenty of great options to be found. We’ve done the work for you!
